another small repair i did today

Postby Brakebuster » Sat Jul 08, 2006 9:24 pm

this is a small repair that was needed by the nearside bonnet rest peg under the windscreen , a hole had developed by the bolt and could ( will ) lead to corrosion in places you cant get to, i hope i caught it in time, the majority of the rusty hole has been cut away in this picture, allowing for the the repair after a little more cleanup and rust prevention measures ,

section welded in, welds smoothed up and filler used to seal the area as it will be exposed to a lot of sitting water,
i dont like to use filler, and when i do its only as a cosmetic repair ( prior to painting ) or to ensure sealing of welds etc ,
